I strongly believe the American doctor who paid $55, 000 to illegal hunt and kill Cecil the lion should be extradited to Zimbabwe to face justice. Should the U.S refuses to extradite him, there is no reason why any country in the world especially countries in Africa should ever honor U.S extradition request. The claim that Robert Mugabe is a racist as said on CNN yesterday, does not hold water where a crime was committed. The doctor knew Robert Mugabe before the traveled to Zimbabwe.

Show of Shame as the Bobby Brown’s sister vows family feud is just beginning
Bobby Brown’s sister vowed the family feud was “far from over” between their family and the late Whitney Houston’s kin during the memorial service for her niece, Bobbi Kristina Brown.
A frustrated Leolah Brown walked out of the St. James United Methodist Church in Alpharetta on Saturday and spoke to reporters gathered outside. She was angry because of some words that were said during the funeral by Pat Houston, the sister-in-law and former manager of Whitney Houston.
“I told her that Whitney is going to haunt her from the grave,” Leolah Brown told reporters outside the church.
Before she went back inside the church, Leolah Brown expressed her love for Bobbi Kristina and Whitney Houston. But she ultimately spewed more venom toward Pat Houston, calling her a “phony” and not a “blood relative.”
“It’s just getting started,” she said.
Bobbi Kristina, who dreamed of growing up to achieve fame like her mother, died in hospice care July 26, about six months after she was found face-down and unresponsive in a bathtub in her suburban Atlanta townhome on Jan. 31.
An email to the Houston family rep was not returned.
For years, there’s been a longstanding rift between the families of the young woman’s famous mother and father. Bobby Brown briefly appeared at Houston’s funeral three years ago, saying he and his children were seated but asked repeatedly to move. Brown said he left because he didn’t want to create a scene, but was upset.
Leolah Brown said she believes Nick Gordon was involved in the death of her niece.
Lawyers for Gordon declined to comment.
The 22-year-old Bobbi Kristina was the only child between Brown and Whitney Houston.
Bobbi Kristina’s death was grimly similar to the way her mother had died three years earlier.
Houston’s assistant found the singer’s lifeless body face-down in a foot of water in her bathtub at the Beverly Hilton Hotel just before the Grammy Awards in 2012. Authorities found prescription drugs in the suite, and evidence of heart disease and cocaine in her body, but determined her death was an accidental drowning.

Did CIA Dupe Danish Double Spy Agent Marten Storm of $5 million USD?
When first revealed, Morten Storm's account of his life as a double agent inside al Qaeda sent shockwaves through Denmark's political and intelligence establishment. The first accounts came in the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten in October 2012.
In those articles, and in his new memoir "Agent Storm: My Life Inside al Qaeda and the CIA," which we co-authored, Storm recounted how after being recruited by Danish intelligence agency PET, he helped the CIA target several al Qaeda terrorists for assassination, most notably the American terrorist cleric Anwar a-Awlaki, who was killed in a CIA drone strike in September 2011.
The allegations have proven explosive in Denmark, where it is illegal for the government to take part in targeted killings.
Storm says his Danish handlers set up and attended meetings he had with the CIA in Denmark and overseas at which plans to track down terrorists were set in motion. He says Danish intelligence was fully aware the Americans planned to use lethal force.
Storm has significant corroborating evidence to back up his claim. He provided us with several hours of secret iPhone recordings of meetings and phone calls with his Danish and American intelligence handlers during which several of the kill missions were discussed.
CNN has not been able to independently authenticate the recordings, but the time the electronic files were first created were consistent with his account.
One of the recordings was of a meeting he says was set up with his PET and CIA handlers at a Danish resort a week after al-Awlaki was killed. On the tape, Storm makes clear to an American interlocutor that he and Danish intelligence had been key to getting al-Awlaki:
"We took initiative to create this because the Americans failed in their attempt to hit Anwar, they failed in their attempts to trace Anwar al-Awlaki, the Americans have failed in every single attempt to arrest or kill Anwar al-Awlaki, except when we went in, we traced him down again, created contacts with him, now he is dead, because of the work we have done."
Agent claims he had been promised $5 million
In the same recording, the American can be heard telling Storm that President Barack Obama knew about his contribution to the al-Awlaki mission, "We had our whole project going forward -- of which you played the highest role,' he said.
But the American denied Storm provided the critical breakthrough, frustrating Storm, who told CNN he had been promised $5 million if he led the CIA to the terrorist cleric. It was after this meeting he first made contact with the Danish newspaper.
After Jyllands-Posten first broke the story, PET refused to confirm or deny Storm's claims. "Out of consideration for PET's operational work, the PET neither can nor will confirm publicly that specific persons have been used as sources by the PET," it said.
"However, the PET does not participate in or support operations where the objective is to kill civilians. The PET did therefore not contribute to the military operation that led to the killing of al-Awlaki in Yemen," then-PET director Jakob Scharf stated.
Neither PET nor the CIA responded to CNN's requests for further comment.
Storm's revelations led Danish parliamentarians to demand new oversight rules for PET.
In January 2013, Storm met with several of them in Copenhagen. Denmark's Ministry of Justice announced it would set up a supervisory board to oversee the Danish intelligence agency, without acknowledging Storm was the reason. Then-Justice Minister Morten Bodskov said the new board would strike "the right balance that will ensure that we have an effective intelligence agency and a good rule of law."
But the government resisted calls from opposition MP's for a full parliamentary inquiry.
After the publication of another Jyllands-Posten article in March 2013, with fresh evidence retrieved from Storm's cell phones, Storm's account received heavyweight backing from Denmark's former spy chief.
Hans Jorgen Bonnichsen, Scharf's predecessor as head of PET, told Danish television that the corroborating evidence presented in the Danish media suggested the PET had used Storm to track down terrorist operatives overseas to help the U.S. target them for assassination. Bonnischen was at the helm of the intelligence agency in the period before Storm says he was recruited as an agent.
In late 2013, a political scandal forced the resignations of PET Director Scharf and Interior Minister Bodskov after it emerged Scharf had instructed subordinates to obtain information on the movements of a Danish MP.
Reforms may be coming in Denmark
The revelations put Storm's story back in the public spotlight. Bonnichsen sharpened his criticism of PET, asserting the disclosures on Danish involvement in assassination plans overseas were so serious there was a basis for a criminal investigation.
At the end of the year the beleaguered agency was put under more pressure when Jyllands-Posten disclosed PET's refusal to offer Storm protection after ISIS linked militants in Syria threatened his life in a video.
"Is it really a satisfactory way for the security services to carry out their task in that it takes three weeks before you answer a former employee who -- rightly -- felt threatened by Islamists?' the chairman of the Danish People's Party told the newspaper. Storm now lives in hiding in an undisclosed location in the UK, and says he currently receives no protection from any Western intelligence service.
In April 2014, the pressure on Denmark increased further when the Open Society Foundation, a New York based legal advocacy group, called on Denmark to acknowledge its role in al-Awlaki's killing and announced it had filed freedom of information requests with the Danish government regarding Storm.
"Danish officials have refused to respond specifically and meaningfully to numerous questions posed on this subject by the legal affairs committee of Denmark's parliament," a press release by the group stated.
"The evidence that has been revealed by Jyllands-Posten, is very worrying. They show that PET actively cooperated with the CIA in the operation to track down and kill Anwar al-Awlaki. They show that PET was eager to cover up his role in the program. They show that PET was trying to hide the truth from the Danish public. The evidence suggests that PET may have violated the Danish Criminal Code provisions relating to murder and international legal prohibitions on, among others, the right to life, among other laws. These are very serious offenses," Amrit Singh, the senior legal officer for national security and counterterrorism for the Open Society Justice Initiative, told Jyllands Posten.
Bonnischen told CNN new oversight rules for PET are now being discussed which would require the agency to submit an annual report to a parliamentary oversight committee on how many agents it was running and how they were being run.
Magnus Ranstorp, one of Scandinavia's leading counterterrorism academics, told CNN Storm's revelations had "opened a Pandora's box of ethical problems which will probably lead in the future to PET's ability or leeway to act being restricted."
It is rare indeed for an intelligence informant to go public about his work. In Storm's case the disclosures may change the law -- and radically change the way his former employer works.

CEO who set firm's minimum wage at $70,000 hits hard times.
An American man who was criticised for raising the minimum wage of his employees is now renting out his home after his business ran into trouble A CEO from Seattle has been forced to rent out his home after his business suffered when he raised the minimum wage to $70,000.
Dan Price, 31, made headlines in the US three months ago when he made the decision to increase the salaries of all 120 staff members at his Gravity Payments credit card processing firm.
However, the move, which included Mr Price taking a pay cut, has not ended well, with two employees resigning and several customers walking away as well as part of a backlash against the payrises.
“I’m working as hard as I ever worked to make it work,” he told the New York Times.
“I’m renting out my house right now to try and make ends meet myself.”
Mr Price lost two of his "most valued" employees when they became angry that lower-skilled workers were being paid a similar salary. Some customers left the company because they thought that raising the minimum wage was a political move that could also end up costing them more.
“There’s no perfect way to do this and no way to handle complex workplace issues that doesn’t have any downsides or trade-offs,” Mr Price said.

Snoop Dogg stopped by Italian police and $211,000 cash seized.
Snoop Dogg has had another run-in with European authorities. The news agency ANSA said the rapper was stopped on Saturday by financial police in southern Italy while carrying $422,000 in cash, well above the limit that can legally be transported across European Union borders without being declared.
Snoop Dogg: I was racially profiled by Swedish police

Snoop Dogg, who has been touring Europe after releasing the album Bush earlier this year, will have to pay a fine, said Andrea Parisi, his lawyer.
“We clarified everything from a legal point of view,” Parisi told Reuters on Saturday. “The money came from concerts he had performed around Europe. There was no crime; it was just an administrative infraction.”
Half of the cash was given back to Snoop Dogg, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, while the other half was being held by Italian authorities until the amount of the fine was determined, Parisi said.
The incident comes less than a week after Snoop Dogg was briefly stopped in Sweden, on suspicion of drug use, and afterwards claimed that he had been a victim of racial profiling.
The rapper was questioned and tested for suspected drug use north of the capital. Authorities said test results would not be available for some time.
Snoop Dogg played in Calabria on Friday night, and was scheduled to perform on Sunday at the Kendal Calling Festival in Britain.
The rapper has repeated convictions for possession of marijuana. In July 2012, he was banned from entering Norway for two years after being found in possession of eight grams of the drug, as well nearly £18,000 ($28,119) of Norwegian currency.

Review allocations of oil blocs, PENGASSAN tells Buhari.
ABUJA — THE Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria, PENGASSAN, has alleged that the allocation of oil blocs in the country lacked transparency and has urged president Muhammadu Buhari to review the process.
The association has also told Mr. President to declare a state of emergency in the oil sector to have permanent solution to the myriads of problems bedevilling the sector.
President of PENGASSAN, Comrade Francis Johnson, who made the allegation while delivering an address at the 4th Triennial Delegate Conference of Total E & P Branch of PENGASSAN in Abuja, weekend, alleged that lack of transparency in the allocation and transfer of oil blocks had remained one of the key factors affecting the oil and gas industry in the country.
Johnson said what the sector required was not cosmetic but rather a holistic approach which he said was the reason why it had become necessary to declare a state of emergency on the sector bearing in mind that it is the main stay of the country,s economy.
According to him: “The association is using this forum to restate its call on the Federal Government to declare a state of emergency in the oil and gas industry in view of the highlighted challenges bedeviling the industry.
“When you are talking about allocation of oil blocks, under normal circumstances the Department of Petroleum Resources, DPR, in conjunction with the minister will do land tripping or something that is transparent, it must be opened. But what is on ground now at present does not represent that.
“That is why we are calling on President Muhammadu Buhari to address the issue; and we said that for the oil and gas sector to grow as expected by all Nigerians, the government must declare a state of emergency.
“Look at the issue of oil subsidy, there are many challenges and anything the government plans to do apart from holding that forum, where we will all sit down and discuss the issues will just be cosmetics; because this industry is the main stay of the economy of this country. So, we need to sit down, and if necessary give it publicity just like it was done during the Oputa panel.”
He also enumerated other challenges confronting the industry to include crude oil theft, pipeline vandalisation, irregular Joint Venture Funding and Non payment of JV Cash Calls, state of the refineries and fuel subsidy claims.
Others, according to him were the poor condition of access roads to operational locations (refineries, depots, among others), non- passage of Petroleum Industry Bill, PIB, and divestment by IOCs.

Benefits of Ginger.
Ginger has been used for its medicinal properties for centuries.
Consuming fruits and vegetables of all kinds has long been associated with a reduced risk of many lifestyle-related health conditions.
Many studies have suggested that increasing consumption of plant foods like ginger decreases the risk of obesity, diabetes,heart disease and overall mortality while promoting a healthy complexion and hair, increased energy and overall lower weight.
Digestive issues: The phenolic compounds in ginger are known to help relieve gastrointestinal irritation, stimulate saliva and bile production and suppress gastric contractions and movement of food and fluids through the GI tract.
Nausea: Chewing raw ginger or drinking ginger tea is a common home remedy for nausea during cancer treatment. Pregnant women experiencing morning sickness can safely use ginger to relieve nausea and vomiting, often in the form of ginger lozenges or candies.
Pain reduction: A study involving 74 volunteers carried out at the University of Georgia found that daily ginger supplementation reduced exercise-induced muscle pain by 25 per cent.
Ginger has also been found to reduce the symptoms of dysmenorrhea (severe pain during a menstrual cycle). In one study, 83 per cent of women taking ginger capsules reported improvements in pain symptoms compared to 47 per cent of those on placebo.
Inflammation: Ginger has been used for centuries to reduce inflammation and treat inflammatory conditions.
A study published in Cancer Prevention Research journal found that a ginger root supplement administered to volunteer participants reduced inflammation markers in the colon within a month. Researchers on the study explained that by decreasing inflammation, the risk of colon cancer is also likely to decrease. Ginger has also shown promise in clinical trials for treating inflammation associated with osteoarthritis.
